Biography
Borisav Jovic was born in Niksic, Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1928, and he was a close ally and advisor of Slobodan Milosevic during the 1980s and 1990s. From 1990 to 1991, he served as President of Yugoslavia (serving one year due to the constitutional rotation law), and he supported throwing Slovenia and Croatia out of Yugoslavia by force, while retaining the Serb-populated areas of Croatia. He sought to give emergency powers to the Yugoslav People's Army to reverse the free elections in the constituent states of Yugoslavia, and Milosevic agreed to these proposals. In May 1991, Jovic left office.
